Nice set-up. Glad you got things worked out. Nothing worse than wiring issues. Nice bars. I was just thinking about how I might redo the roll bar on my ramcherger when I build a new top.

Interisting how you planning on controling the VGT? Looks like a cable setup... Still waiting on winter to do mine as I have to still use it till later in the year.

Roll Bar Setup looks sweet man, lets get some more pictures of the outside of the truck as well. Been wanting to build a roll bar setup for my rig.
